IGL Coatings — which product is right for your vehicle?
Three tiers, built for different vehicles and different budgets.
Choosing a tier
What actually separates them.
All three IGL tiers are professional-grade ceramic coatings, applied the same careful way — decontamination, inspection, correction if needed, then application in a controlled studio bay. The difference between them is warranty length, hardness, and the graphene technology used, which is why the price moves with the tier rather than the workmanship.
As an authorised IGL installer, every tier we apply carries a genuine manufacturer warranty — not just a verbal promise.

Our recommendation
Which one should you choose?
If you're after solid daily protection on a car you'll own for a few years, Elixir covers the basics without paying for capability you won't use. If you care about your car's finish — a weekend car, a newer daily, or anything you plan to keep long-term — Arcane is the sweet spot most of our customers land on. Kenzo is for owners who want the longest rated protection and the highest hardness available, typically on prestige, exotic or collector vehicles where the coating is part of preserving the car's value.
Not sure which fits your situation? Tell us about the vehicle and how you use it when you get in touch — we'll give you an honest recommendation, not just the most expensive option.
Common questions
IGL tier FAQs.
Warranty length, hardness, and graphene technology. Elixir is a 3-year silica ceramic entry option, Arcane is a 4-year 9H PETRONAS graphene coating, and Kenzo is IGL's flagship 5-year 10H dual-layer graphene formula. All three are applied with the same process and carry a genuine manufacturer warranty as we're an authorised installer.
Elixir or Arcane both suit daily drivers well. Elixir covers the basics on a budget; Arcane adds two extra years of rated protection and higher hardness if you want the paint looking its best for longer.
For prestige, exotic or collector vehicles, most owners think so — an extra year of rated protection and the highest hardness IGL offers. For an everyday car you're not precious about, Arcane usually does the job for less.
Yes. Every tier is backed by a genuine IGL manufacturer warranty, which is only valid when applied by an authorised installer.
